In
Forecasts and Faith: Five Keys to Weathering the Storms of Life,
WLBT-3 chief meteorologist Barbie Bassett takes you behind the
cameras for not only an intimate look at the fast-paced,
high-pressure world of broadcast news and meteorology, but also the
life of a true Mississippi survivor whose faith has kept her steady
through every storm life has brought her.
From the earliest days of her humble beginnings in the small
Mississippi Delta town of Marks, Barbie's strong faith has given her
a rock-solid foundation and supported her through not only the
births of her three beautiful children, but through the tragic loss
of a child...through her vastly successful decade at highly rated
WLBT, and the anger, hurt, and confusion she felt during her year in
broadcast exile...and through the weather-related storms she's lived
through in her personal life: the deadly tornado that ripped through
her Madison, Mississippi, neighborhood in 2001 and the far-reaching
destruction of Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
Through it all, you'll get to know a strong, intelligent, devout
lady who was taught to give back in her youth and is passing those
ideals along to her children while setting a sterling example for
her community. |
